.DISCUSSION...
Issued at 343 PM CDT Tue May 21 2024

The severe storm threat has pushed east of our coverage area,
thus both the tornado and flood watches have been cancelled.
There could be lingering spotty showers in the cyclonic flow
behind the system that could linger until about 6 to 7 pm. A
couple of areal flood warnings remain in effect through 6 pm
for those locations that received 3 to 7 inches of rain earlier
today. And river flood warnings will continue for the next
couple of days.

Wednesday looks like a dry, quiet day thankfully. But there are
storm chances back in the forecast for Thursday, with a marginal
risk of severe storms Thursday night as another strong front
moves into the region, when we will have another marginal risk
of excessive heavy rainfall.

And then we`ll have spotty storm chances in the Memorial Holiday
weekend on Friday, Sunday, and Monday, but nothing looks
particularly severe at this time. High temperatures behind the
front Friday in the upper 60s to lower 70s. Highs Saturday in
the lower 70s, in the mid 70s Sunday, and the lower 70s Monday.
Overall, a very comfortable period with no temperature extremes.
